Everyone back on the bus!

I like the use of the slow shutter here to capture so many Waldos but to not really capture any of them; the effect with the flag is excellent, as well. The ghostly people around a monument like this, in soft, night lighting, works really well. Nicely shot.

Determination

Cool image that makes for a nice abstract, with the tones and subtle colors dominating the appearance. The lighting isn't always flattering, especially toward the top, but given the harshness of rocks like these, and the hardness of those who climb them, seems an appropriate choice of processing to me. Nicely shot.

Bearries. I see Bearries in the bush

I imagine you're getting killed for this (everyone wondering where Waldo is and focused on the bear), but it's such a great capture. I hope Waldo is out of sight and inching slowly away, mama bear is sure to be nearby! Great capture and presentation here, though the brightness of the bark is a bit distracting when I look for too long (which I keep doing because the bear is so cute!).

He's Cleaning the Garage (?!)

What a cluttered workshop, and the image captures that feel perfectly. Delightful tones and shades in this, and the beer is the perfect touch. Excellent choice on how much of Waldo to show us, though I might have shifted the feer a bit to the left (maybe, maybe not - how's that for definite advice?). Nice shot.

No, it isn't Mao...

I really like this shot; the muted tones, matching both on the lower wall and on the upper columns, give the image a sense of cohesiveness for me, one that seems to fit with my idea of China's communist theology. I love that you've chosen a person who almost could have been one of the white pots (or whatever they are), and whose appearance comes close to those things. I might have tried this with the person offset a bit (making Mao a bit offset, as well), but that might not have worked. Interesting image, well presented.

Child Of The Corn

Nicely shot for the challenge, and I like that you put extra effort into the theme (by coloring the child's face). As an image alone, aside from the challenge, it doesn't hold much interest for me, though it does present a unique perspective that I haven't seen before. Moving "Waldo" out of the center might have helped to my eye, not to hide him, but to place him on a natural focal point while hiding him with color and the corn. Overall an effective image for the challenge, well conceived and shot.

On the Harbor

Such a confluence and convergence of lines, shapes and colors here make this a difficult image for me to get to grips with. I was somewhat overwhelmed each time I looked at it, searching for a focus, but if I accept that that is the purpose -- to overwhelm the viewer with conflicts within the image, perhaps with a view to hiding Waldo -- then I must admit it does this very well. All the pieces are there, nicely exposed, with good use of depth of field, and composed to achieve this end.

Fleeting Hope

Nice take on the challenge, and fun title to give it a bit of edge. It seems the image is primarily driven by the challenge, though, but for this purpose it works well. I might have moved the horizon up a bit so there was less empty sky (which doesn't do much for me), but whether that would improve the image is a guess. The soft focus on Waldo's head does work for me, though, given the context.

Morning has broken
by Limbo

Comment:
Very pretty shot, and excellent handling of the lighting issues (I can never reasonably capture sun rays like this); the range of tones from dark to light is really nice, and the glasslike appearance of the water is appealing. The mist in the back works well to emphasize that this is a morning shot. Nicely presented image.

Desert Southwest

Well shot, the kind of image that's hard to present well on DPC because of the size of the allowed images (it's hard to show good detail at this distance in a 640 sized image). Your shot is a lovely b&w, with nice tons and textures throughout; I can almost hear the person calling out for a car to come back, or see him/her getting ready to put out their thumb to catch a ride. Nice feeling to this, well captured.
